Let me start off with this: Fuck you guys.

That said, do you Pinterest? I don't have a Twitter or Facebook, so I can't (won't) join, but my friends send me stuff because they know I am gay on the inside.

Some cool projects:

Coffee filters






Recycled pallets:





Anyway, do you Pinterest?

I've never heard of it but I am really liking so many of the things pictured, the old & new wood, the awesome dark doors on the light cabinet, the shabby cabinet pictured in the beginning, etc.

I love that shabby chic stuff & my favorite decor is country. I wouldn't be comfortable in a hoity toity home, I like wood & stone, nature products.

You will get trapped in Pinterest if you are stoned, so heed that warning. haha



I lurve this one:

This is cute with salvaged legs:



I love the idea of using throw-away materials to make something beautiful. Plus, the older I get, the less I want to have what everyone else has that they bought at the same stores.

I always see potential in things that other people might consider junk.

K, so I won't post the recipe part. haha

I read a tutorial on how to make blue (or any color) mason jars for cuttings:

elmer's glue (1 Tbs) food coloring (one drop green, two drops blue) and water (1.5 Tbs) then paint on the jars in layers. They wash if they get wet, but would last a season if you are careful just to get water on the inside. (Ashamed I read that, haha.)

That stuff is cool!!

I wonder if I'm too old to take up Pinterest (I'd never heard the term either). I think Dick and Maggot would be good at it.

I dunno, I want the stuff but I'm kind of lazy too.
